"I can't control your behavior; nor do I want that burden... but I will not apologize for refusing to be disrespected, to be lied to, or to be mistreated. I have standards; step up or step out."
This plot involves my DewClan apprentice Brackenpaw, and will last quite a while (at the very least, into their warrior-hood). What can I say, I like slowburns. ((':

It all begins when Bracken meets Cat1. For one reason or another, they become determined to become their friend, which they do -- and, as a result, the two of them become incredibly close. They are best friends, and are entirely devoted to one another. It's entirely platonic (at least, it is on Bracken's part *wink wonk*); they're just very close and dedicated friends who aren't really looking for another cat.
That is, until Bracken meets Cat2. Bracken immediately starts crushing on Cat2, and of course they go to their best friend to talk about it. They express how they think it's "love at first sight", "meant to be", etc. etc (they don't explicitly say that, but they're gushing enough that they may as well be). Cat1, on the other hand, doesn't share their excitement, but rather is skeptical about Cat2 (do they get bad vibes? are they jealous? etc.). Whether or not they decided to outright express their feelings about the other cat, Bracken just dismisses it, and goes back to pining.
Eventually, Bracken gets their shit together and confesses. Turns out, Cat2 accepts their feelings! The two become a "couple" (not mates since they're still apprentices at this point), and everything seems amazing and wonderful for Bracken. They're so in love, nothing could go wrong!...
...Except it does. A moon or two later, the "honeymoon period" ends, and things start to change ever so slightly. Cat2 seems to become snappier and more impatient with Bracken, and acts almost as though they would rather they weren't around. But Bracken being Bracken, they stick around, confident that things will get better.
Spoiler alert, they don't. Snapping and impatience become arguments and blaming, and eventually the relationship becomes toxic. Bracken still holds on, forgiving Cat2 any time they do something unhealthy, and generally just becoming submissive, holding out the tiny hope that things will get better. Unfortunately, this takes a toll on the feline, and their mood becomes noticeably worse. This lasts for another couple moons, wearing down on the two. Bracken tries to hide it with a smile, but it's not enough, and one cat in particular notices.
Cat1 eventually corners Bracken and forces them to spill everything. And, emotionally raw and broken from the moons of an unhealthy relationship, they do. They tell Cat1 everything, and Cat1 understandably reacts negatively (sad, angry, maybe even "i told you so", etc). Maybe they encourage (or demand) Bracken to cut off the relationship, maybe they say that they'll give Cat2 a piece of their mind, or something entirely different. But one way or another, Bracken and Cat2's relationship finally comes to a close. By this time they are warriors.
Surprisingly, this leaves Bracken even worse than before, believing that "it was their fault", they "failed", etc. Cat1, being the wonderful and supportive friend they are, nurse Bracken back to health, and everything finally starts to look up again. Except for the fact that now Bracken has unknowingly fallen for their best friend, the cat who has been there for them ever since apprenticeship. Shit.
Characters
Cat1 -- Kite
"i won't abandon you, and you know damn well that i'm going to fight for you"
Claimed by: ★iamhobbit
Info:
- preferably in DewClan
- must be apprentice aged
- can be any gender/sexuality
- personality is open, but i *really* like the idea of them being opposites to Bracken
- (ie. closed off/reserved, rude to those at first,tsundere, etc.)
- but they should be very loyal to those they care about!!
- history is open
Cat2 --
"a relationship is more than finding the right person, it's about being the right person"
Claimed by:
Info:
- preferably in DewClan
- should be around Bracken's age
- can be any gender/sexuality
- THEY HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE A REALLY INTERESTING CHARACTER
- LIKE SERIOUSLY I WOULD TAKE THEM IF IT WOULDN'T MAKE THINGS WEIRD
- personality is open, but should have some reasons as to why the relationship would turn unhealthy
- super interesting after the plot??? like??? how would they deal with it?? did they have a reason for it being unhealthy?? how would that affect their future???
- i really love them if you can't tell
- history is open
Threads:
- we should have at least one thread w/ Bracken and Cat1, becoming friends (preferably two to really solidify that "best friend" status)
- thread with Bracken, Cat1 and Cat2 (where they all meet for the first time, ft. crushing bracken)
- either a short thread where Bracken and Cat1 talk about Cat2, or potentially do that interaction in the discord RP chat
- thread w/ Bracken and Cat2 where Bracken confesses
- thread where Bracken and Cat2 are a happy couple (ft. either another short thread where Bracken and Cat1 talk their relationship, or that interaction in the discord RP chat)
- thread where Bracken and Cat2's relationship starts going to shit (could be a series of interactions in the discord RP chat, but should have at least one actual thread)
- thread where Cat1 corners Bracken
- thread where Bracken and Cat2 end their relationship
- from here the plot is basically over, but Bracken and Cat1's threads continue as Bracken starts crushing and things are open from there
- maybe even a future thread with Bracken and Cat2 as they become mature adults?? idk i think that would be really interesting
Progress:
- N/A
